Volume 1 Chapter 19: Get the Beauty Back Soon
The two went out to eat. After dinner, Xu Jingmo sent Du Ruo home and drove back to school.
Before I arrived at school, I received a call from Ji Yunbai.
"Brother, let's go to KZ."
“No time.”
"Stop pretending. I saw your car. I'm right behind you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jingmo heard a horn sounding behind him. He glanced in the rearview mirror, hung up the phone, turned the car around at the intersection ahead, and drove in another direction.
KZ is a bar that supports live houses. It was opened by Ji Yunbai when he was a freshman.
Ji Yunbai has loved guitar since he was a child and started playing in a band in high school. However, as he is the only child in the family and shouldering the heavy responsibility of inheriting the family business, he can only regard music as a pastime and only try it briefly.
After entering university, he opened such a store specifically to meet his spiritual needs. It is also a good place for him and his friends to relax and have fun on weekdays.
Ten minutes later, two cars stopped at the gate of KZ one after another.
Ji Yunbai and Wen Fei got out of the car, both with gossipy looks on their faces.
Xu Jingmo raised his hand and looked at the time. There were still two hours left before the dormitory was closed. He said, "I'll only stay for one hour."
Ji Yunbai said nonchalantly: "Okay~"
The three of them walked into the room, and the staff who passed by greeted them. They sat down in their usual booth, and someone immediately came over to serve them wine, all in the usual way.
Xu Jingmo said to the waiter, "Give me a glass of lemonade."
Wen Fei asked concernedly, "Did you go to the hospital this afternoon? Did your fever go away?"
"I went there and I feel much better."
Suddenly remembering Du Ruo's words, Xu Jingmo looked at Ji Yunbai with a playful look and asked him, "How high was your fever that day?"
Ji Yunbai thought about it and said, "I think it's 38. I'll be fine after lying down for a day. I was so uncomfortable and my whole body was in pain."
Xu Jingmo smiled and said, "I went to the hospital this afternoon and had a fever of 40 degrees. Du Ruo even asked me to post a circle of friends. I was able to remain calm at 40 degrees, isn't that amazing?"
“…”
"Is that what your sly little fairy said?"
"You don't know. When I greeted her today, she just nodded perfunctorily. I've never met anyone as cool as her. She's even cooler than you." Ji Yunbai imitated Du Ruo's expression at that time and complained to Xu Jingmo.
Xu Jingmo laughed: "She is not easy to approach."
Wen Fei asked curiously, "This is a bit unfair. You have a crush on someone but you're still hiding it. We just saw it. She lives in your house. With your obvious double standard attitude, stop fooling us that we're just friends."
"You guys follow me?" Xu Jingmo raised his eyebrows.
His tone was indifferent, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. Ji Yun quickly explained, "It was a coincidence. I saw you guys getting in the car and leaving when I came out of the hotel. Feifei and I made a bet to guess whether you guys would be together that night."
Then he teased, "I didn't expect you to bring her home. If you hadn't gotten off the car, I would have suspected you were going to be a beast. Her sister is still a minor."
Xu Jingmo took a sip of water from the cup, glanced at him, and warned him coldly: "There will be no next time for such words. We are not in that kind of relationship, and she is not someone you can joke with casually."
Ji Yunbai and Wen Fei looked at each other. They didn't expect Xu Jingmo to be so serious.
Friends in the circle often chat and joke around on weekdays. Ji Yunbai and Wen Fei were teased a lot when they first made their relationship public, and they were encouraged to kiss in front of everyone countless times.
Regardless of their age, these people all liked to follow Xu Jingmo when they were young.
Later, Xu Jingmo moved away, and everyone had new friends when they were old enough to go to school. Except for some family social occasions during the Chinese New Year, they rarely saw each other.
It was only after Xu Jingmo was admitted to A University and returned to Beicheng last year that we got together more often and became familiar with each other again.
Although Xu Jingmo seems to be much more mature than when he was a child and not such a jerk anymore, no one dares to provoke him because of the reputation he had as a devil since he was a child. It is a memory engraved in his bones.
Moreover, what happened later proved that one should not easily make the Crown Prince unhappy, as the consequences would be serious.
Ji Yunbai asked: "You're protecting me like this, and you still say it's okay?"
Xu Jingmo did not deny it, and said calmly: "We are already in love, how can you tell whether I like you or not? I am unrequited love."
Wen Fei asked: "Did you meet this sister in Jiangcheng? She doesn't look like someone from the North City."
"Yes, we are neighbors."
Ji Yunbai: "No wonder, you moved away when you were 5 years old, right? You'd be blind if you didn't like such a beautiful sister you've known since childhood."
Xu Jingmo stared at the glass, curled his lips, and said, "Her personality has been like this since she was a child. She's not easy to get close to, but she's a very good person. You'll know after you get to know her more. I have a lot of classes tomorrow, so I'll be free in the afternoon. If you go to the club, please help take care of her."
Wen Fei: "Don't worry about that. Not to mention that she's your sweetheart, we will definitely take good care of her. Just talking about your sister's conditions, there are many people lining up to take care of her. Today, more than a dozen boys in the club added her WeChat."
Xu Jingmo pulled the corner of his lip helplessly, "That's right."
Ji Yunbai didn't understand what Xu Jingmo was trying to do by having such a shameless and secret crush on her, so he reminded her, "Brother, if you don't declare your sovereignty, aren't you afraid that you'll be taken away by thieves?"
If it were him, he would not be able to accept Wen Feijia’s WeChat messages from a strange man. She can only be his.
Xu Jingmo pinched his brows tiredly, "There are so many people who like her, how can I handle it? Besides, who do you think can take her away?"
Wen Fei disagreed: "You can't say that. Who can predict the relationship? It's better to strike first. Ah Mo, if you like someone, you have to express your feelings and pursue her. If you don't, she will always treat you as a friend. What if someone else expresses his feelings first and she happens to like him? What will you do then?"
Ji Yunbai had a say in this matter. He put his arm around Wen Fei's shoulders and held her in his arms. "Yes, she was almost robbed at the beginning."
Wen Fei pushed him away in a nagging manner, "What do you mean by being robbed? You didn't confess your feelings to me. I'm single and I can date anyone I want."
Ji Yunbai was so angry that he grabbed her chin and kissed her fiercely, "What? You really want to fall in love with that guy? Do you think I'm dead? If I didn't like you, would I bring you breakfast every day? Would I take a detour to send you home every day no matter how late it was?"
Wen Fei: "If you don't confess, how can I know that you did it because you like me? We grew up together, so it doesn't necessarily mean that you treat me as your sister."
Ji Yunbai was too lazy to talk about these old things with her and was about to continue to shut her up, but she stopped him and signaled with her eyes that Xu Jingmo was still there.
Xu Jingmo ignored them the whole time, calmly drinking his lemonade and watching the band performance downstairs. When he saw the two of them suddenly fell silent, he turned around and looked over, very calmly, "Is it over?"
Ji Yunbai cleared his throat and continued with the attitude of an experienced person: "Brother, listen to us, you have to confess your feelings and seduce her. You treat her differently, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it. It depends on whether she likes your face or your money. Show your advantages and win her heart as soon as possible."
Xu Jingmo looked listless, and his roommates also said, "I hope I can marry my beauty soon." They also said this, which made him a little annoyed.
Is that because he doesn't want to?
He took a sip of lemonade, the sour taste was not even one ten-thousandth of what he felt in his heart. He said softly, "After confessing, what happens? If you get rejected, we may not even be friends. If you agree, how about a long-distance relationship? How long can you last with a 12-hour time difference and no physical contact?"
What's more, that person is handsome, rich, and powerful, and he is surrounded by many attentive people. What can you want from him?
He wished she was lacking something, so that he would have a chance.
Ji Yunbai and Wen Fei were silent. They forgot that the little fairy was not an ordinary person...
Indeed, falling in love with a god is something that not everyone can dream of.
